The new lighting system will be much more pleasing to work under. It would use less energy, especially if combined with sensors and automation to turn down or off unused lights. It would provide hardware for hacking on. It will be super hi-tech and becoming of a hackerspace.

It is new tech and could take longer, or be more expensive than planned. This will be the second time for me to install this in a building. People who hack the computer controlled lights might instruct them to display patterns that are annoying to others. It might be too awesome.
